A lawyer had a wife and 12 children and needed to move as his rental agreement was coming to an end for the home where he lived but was having difficulty in finding a new home When he said he had 12 children no one would rent a home to him because they knew that the children would destroy the home He could not say that he had no children he could not lie after all lawyers can not and do not lie So he had an idea : he sent his wife for a walk to the cemetery with 11 children He took the remaining one with him to see homes with the Real Estate Agent He liked one of the homes and the agent asked How many children do you have ? He answered 12 children The agent asked Where are the others ? The lawyer answered with a sad look They are in the cemetery with their mother And that s the way he was able to rent a home for his family without lying MORAL: It is not necessary to lie one only has to choose the right words Lawyers don t lie they are creative
